When a diagnosis of prostate cancer calls for the surgical removal of the prostate gland, patients from Minneapolis, St. Paul, surrounding suburbs, and all around the five-state area come to Dr. Robert Gaertner and Dr. Christopher Knoedler for both their team approach and their expertise with da Vinci robotic surgery. These highly trained and compassionate physicians have helped thousands of men facing prostate cancer with the highest level of skill and technology.

Dr. Gaertner and Dr. Knoedler have a combined level of urological surgical experience that exceeds 50 years. One of the most important aspects of having a prostectectomy performed by Dr. Gaertner and Dr. Knoedler is that both physicians are in attendance for each and every surgical procedure. This incredibly unique approach affords every patient with the combined expertise of not just one but two surgeons to accommodate their needs.
